Healthy Child Development
October 24, 2014
Module 1: Healthy Child Development: Improving the Odds Preconception, Prenatal
and Post-Partum Interventions to Improve Child Health Outcomes
Dr. Patricia Mousmanis
The quality of early childhood experiences has an important influence on brain development and subsequent
learning, behavior and health. The purpose of this program is to highlight developments in early
neurodevelopment and to explore how these developments can be incorporated into primary care. This workshop
will provide an overview of the field of Preventative Pediatric Health Care (0 - 6 years) through the well-baby/child
visit, using various evidence-based tools. In particular, the Rourke Baby Record, the M-CHAT, and the Nipissing
District Developmental Screen will be utilized. Early identification of preconception and prenatal psychosocial
issues, a Preconception checklist and the Antenatal Record will be reviewed. The Edinburgh Screen will be
reviewed as a tool to identify post-partum depression. The Healthy Child Development Improving the Odds Manual
and Facing the Challenges will be used as a resource.
Learning Objectives:
1.
To identify risk factors which can impact brain development during the early years and recognize how
family practice teams can optimize proactive health and developmental surveillance
2.
To consider the role of preconception interventions to optimize developmental outcomes and review
evidence regarding clinical strategies that can be included in antenatal , post-partum and well child visits
3.

interactions , demonstrate practice tools for the primary care setting to assist in monitoring
